  • Looking for a PBEM game

    Never tried before, but would like a go. Played CTP quite a lot, but always on my own.

    Quite happy to be "cannon fodder" as it were in exchange for learning.

    So, anybody want to let me join a game?

    I'd like to give PBEM a try too !
    By the way, is there any stuff I need to download? (I'm a newbie!!)

      I'm new also. Perhaps a youngblood vs. veteran matchup!

        As far as I know, all you need to do is download the patch to bring your game up to version 1.2. The v1.2 patch put PBEM support into the game.

        Then as long as we just want to use "vanilla" CTP without any of the mods on this site, we should be OK.

        Let's leave it a day or so and see if anybody else is interested. If not the 3 of us could have a go on a small map so our civilizations get to know each other quickly!

            Thanks Keygen. I've posted my interest on your thread along with some questions. I've also looked at you rules that use the idea of supervisor and moderator(s). It's starting to look complicated.

              • Excellent!


              Questions:
              • Is your nationality randomly assigned?
              • Is this going to be a bloodlust type of game or a standard one?
              • Can I sleep now?

                  The one of you, who starts the game needs to know

                  civ, leadername and preferred e-mail adress.

                  on every in the game. This is a must.


                  You should decide, if you want AI (don't) as a "nation".

                  And you should decide how many babarians you want to see.

                  This should be enough for at start.


                  As you come along and want more challenging game, there's a lot of other parameters/files to ajust.
                  First they ignore you. Then they laugh at you. Then they fight you. Then you win.
